Lindell Wigginton
- Thread starter Rio4CY
- Start date
#52 in 247 composite, would definitely be an upgrade from Wright.
Would be a huge get. Jared tweeted that Oregon & us are considered the leaders right now. Hopefully he schedules a visit soon.
Not a big deal but his last name is Wigginton, no 3rd "g".
Would definitely be huge to land him.

But what are these assistant coaches doing? Do they actually recruit anyone? Why are we pulling offers from kids that want to visit? I'm concerned about Prohm he's barely been here a calendar year but his recruiting suuuuccccckkkkssssss... Blah blah blah stfu.
Yeah, Payton Pritchard. Plus they're the favorite for a top 50 combo guard in 2017 so hopefully those help us.
Some video of Lindell. Good athlete with size for someone his age with some hops and nice outside shot.
Would you say more combo or shooting guard than true point guard? Or is he considered a pg only?
He looks like a combo guard to me with some very good athleticism for his size. Definitely not a pass first old school PG, but could grow into more of a distributor as he develops. His scoring ability might earn him early minutes wherever he lands. I should add he appears to have good court vision and the handle to a be a quality PG.

I'd say Wiggington is more of a scoring combo guard rather than a true PG. That said he fast enough to defend PG's and was able to penetrate and dish the ball to the post effectively.
Considering Prohm's recent history with PG's (Cannon and Payne) recruiting Jackson and reports that he wants Monte to score more and play off the ball some this may be the type of PG that he wants for his system.
PG doesn't mean what it used to. You want a PG who can score these days. So I don't think Wigginton is a combo. Also he is known as a good passer and a heady player with good intangibles plus the ability to penetrate and score from all the scouting reports I have seen. Sounds like the Ducks have been a favorite for awhile now though.
Update with Wigginton with quotes.
Fingers crossed he'll make it on to ISU campus, first hurdle is Oregon Sept 10th.

"Iowa State will then get their chance with the top 100 prospect the weekend of September 24th.
“Good relationship with the coaches, great fan support, coach let's his guards play and coach feels I can come play right away,” he responded when asked about the Cyclones."

I have a bad feeling he will commit to Oregon before Sept 24th. I hope I'm wrong
Ever since Boucher I don't trust anyone walking onto that campus before we get a chance.. Hope we are both wrong, cause Lindell is on the top of my "Want List"
I'm curious to whether or not the fact Oregon doesn't have anyone committed yet will play into his decision? We have 2 very solid commits right now and as we've all heard before, talent wants to play with other talent.
